Reunion between Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet at the Palm Spring Film Festival

The reunion between the two protagonists of Neverland during the Palm Spring Film Festival of last night has been moving.

I have on the walls of my bedroom the two pictures I love the most of Neverland taken from an old issue and interview of Vanity Fair with the protagonists. I decided to remove them, scanning something for sharing with you Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet some years ago.

Kate Winslet at that time was 29 years old and Johnny Depp 40.

Johnny was fresh of a nomination at the Oscars for Pirates The Curse of the Black Pearl.

The year after, with Neverland the Academy Awards more convinced to give him an additional chance with this movie in the category Best Actor. The movie received seven nominations.

The two actors were chosen by director Marc Forster because “Winslet is true in every occasion and Johnny Depp a creative spirit”.

According to Johnny Depp at that time no one shocked if a man would meet a lady at the park starting a friendship with her.

Yes because the main theme of Neverland is the friendship between JM Barrie the creator of the book Peter Pan and Sylvia Lewelyn Davies. A real scandal for that times.

This lady with three children. One of them Peter the one will inspire the character of Peter Pan.

The main choice was the one of keeping the relationship of JM Barrie and ms Davies under a platonic perspective.

De facto for this lady JM Barrie left his wife.

The movie is measured regarding emotions. It was filmed in an old-fashioned atmosphere and moderation was a word pretty used on set.
